“Oh horsecrap, Oliver.”

Well, no. That was rather my point — it’s not that complaining about the opposite sex is wrong, but, as I wrote, that criticism of women is censored and that of men is not.

And that’s the distinction I was talking about. Running around complaining about male-bashing plays into this idea that all such things are wrong. It isn’t. What’s wrong is that one is OK and the other is not.

Thus, when *I* hear a woman start to go off on men, I don’t start whining “Ohhh, you are hurting my little male ego.” I go “Oh yeah? Let me tell you something about women…”
